Visual&MentalAssault: Film by idiots, about idiots, for idiots

I finally got 'Idioterne (The Idiots)' by Lars Von Trier on DVD after having my last purchase from Amazon UK banned by MDA. This completes my collection of The Golden Heart Trilogy films including Breaking The Waves and Dancing In The Dark. It's a shocking and unconventional take on challenging social norms and self-expression. Completely weird and irrelevant on the surface but absolutely stunning and moemorable beneath. I am waiting eagerly for the second of the America - Land of Opportunites trilogy film, Manderlay, which is predeced by the excellent Dogville from 03.
